In happier news, "Springisintheair," "Mud In The Hall," and the unidentified tattooed mare were visited by Dr Kemper of West Coast Equine Hospital.
Despite Spring's severely bowed tendon and enlarged leg, Dr. Kemper says it isn't causing her any pain, and so she's safe to place as a companion. And certainly, she's feeling sassy enough to act as leader of the pack!
Spring's neglected teeth were addressed; and vaccinations given. Then, Mud was looked at. The big stocky mare, well north of 16 hh, passed as healthy and sound, but still seems tired and sore, so will be given time to relax and emotionally heal.
The unidentified tattooed mare was also ruled to be healthy and sound, just underweight, so she'll be given time to pack on the pounds before anything is asked of her.
All around, happy news for these three lucky recipient mares and OTTB's!
